Thumbs up incoming ring tone notification

I was wondering if some one can help me. I can not change my notification ring tone. Have gone into sound and display menu, gone into notification sound, chosen ring tone i want, and still it plays a tone that is not even in the notification sound drop down list!

Hope you can help

THIS IS IN THE STICKY AT THE TOP OF THE FORUM PAGE

To add new ringtones or SMS alerts, connect your Hero to USB and mount the device on your PC. Browser to the following folders:

Ringtones: /sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
SMS Alerts: /sdcard/media/audio/notifications
Alarm Alerts: /sdcard/media/audio/alarms

Copy your mp3 files into either of the folders above. Then go to:

Ringtone:Settings > sound and display > phone ringtone
SMS: Settings > sound and display > notification sound
Alarms: Set the sound when adding a new alarm.

Then select the ringtone you put in the above folder(s).

Jonboy, if I understand correctly I think you're mixing up notifications and ringtones; in android notification referes to everything else other than the ringtone. So you need to change Settings > sound and display > phone ringtone, like zaffy said.

This works fine for the default ringtone.

However I have not been able to get it working with individual ringtones, e.g. one for wife, son etc..

I am running Modaco 3.1 and never been able to get it to work with this are previous versions. Worked OK on Orange ROM.
